yeah 3 days to get it installed , tuned and running, then we were out the next day doing some data logging on it and got hit by a peterbilt lorry…
i know lotus doesn’t like us dicking with the cars, but thats ridiculous
all i need now is a top bloke 240R owner or exige S owner to help me out with the map, and i can do away with the piggyback, i haven’t seen my folks for a a year, might be time to go home and visit just leave the engine bay open and nip in the pub for a pint and you’ll never know i was there
unfortunately I’m in america (unless you’re american in which case, UNFORTUNATELY I AM IN AMERICA )
my folks live in chorley ,lancashire (nearish douglas valley breakers)
i was hoping to get the 240R CRP file off someone but i don’t know if there has been an ECU update since the 240r’s release or if lotus gives them out in the UK, in the USA the EPA makes them do it.
So if i can’t get that then i need access to the ECU for 35-40 minutes, so drink that pint really slowly,… its not the best solution since you have to pull the ecu out of the car and pop the cover (4 screws) but theres no damage done, its just a case of connecting a laptop to it and reading it back.
It would take an hour to get it out of the car with the supercharger and different inlet covering it up… and sadly I’m the other end of the country Lancashire…
Lotus don’t publish any of the maps over here in any format as far as I’m aware…
i didn’t think about the intercooler/sc getting in the way.
yeah i didn’t think they would, they only do it here because they’re forced too. sadly there is no SC 2005 car here that i know of (unless someones slipped one in while the epa wasn’t looking)
well i guess the next step is to do a whip round and get someone to buy us a 240R ECU and ship it over, i suppose i could try christopher neil but i bet they’ll want a vin at least.
of course this helps me naught since i have the 2006 ecu anyway, so then i need to find an ‘S’ or the crp file.
Sent a rather scolding email to Brett bitching about miss information etc. Waiting for a reply it was claimed that the ECU is sorted but waiting for proof.
Just in case I am perusing other possibilities
Can�t say anymore on the Plans side of things, if curious I would suggest you give Graham an email or call.
